Our History

David Hellmuth and Chad Johnson joined forces in 1994 with the goal of creating a premier law firm capable of handling even the most complex and challenging cases efficiently and effectively. Hellmuth & Johnson’s two founding partners set the firm on a trajectory of steady growth and ever increasing capabilities.

Today Hellmuth & Johnson ranks among the 20 largest law firms in Minnesota, with more than 50 Minneapolis lawyers serving clients in more than 18 legal practice areas. We offer a full suite of legal services to clients without sacrificing our original commitment to providing responsive and affordable legal representation.

Our Building

An iconic presence in the Minneapolis metropolitan area, the five-story, 45,000 square foot Hellmuth & Johnson building anchors the intersection of highways 494 and 169. Our highly accessible location is near downtown yet free from city center congestion, which enables easy access for visitors, while the building’s architecture reflects equal deference to the environment. Rather than encroaching on the adjacent nature reserve, we built upward instead of outward, devoting our first three levels to parking to minimize the building’s environmental footprint.

In recognition of design excellence, the Hellmuth & Johnson building was named a 2010 Top Project winner by Finance & Commerce magazine.
